Answer:

Despite the short prep time, Washington team members Enzo Garcia and Nicole Marconi had no problem speaking first, explaining their support for recent actions in the Middle East.

Explanation:

Parliamentary debate is a form of debate in academic institutions where students in the university level debate in teams. And even though the name may be titled "parliamentary", it has nothing to do with the governmental policies/ patterns.

Following the pattern of giving an extempore speech, these parliamentary debates are given impromptu. After they get the topic, they are given just 15 mins to discuss and then begin their talk. The team leading the debate are called as 'the government' while the other are conveniently called 'the opposition'.

So, considering the pattern of the parliamentary debate facts, the best sentence that shows the given excerpt is a parliamentary debate will be-

Despite the short prep time, Washington team members Enzo Garcia and Nicole Marconi had no problem speaking first, explaining their support for recent actions in the Middle East.

Macbeth calls the day of the battle "foul and fair". what does he mean by this? how can a situation be both foul and fair? (act
Ksivusya [100]
Hey there!
What he means by foul and fair is that first of all, war is always foul. People die, and it can end in victory for one side, but they will undoubtedly suffer losses.
However, there's a specific reason for this war. It's a war based on a disagreement or argument, and war was the way it was settled.
A situation can be both foul and fair if it has equal pros and cons, like suffering losses but settling an argument.
Hope this helps!

Read the excerpt from "The Straw, the Coal, and the Bean.” The bean, who had prudently stayed behind on the shore, could not but
lyudmila [28]

This question is missing the options. I've found the options online, and they are as follows:

[...] Which statement most accurately explains the structure of this passage?

A. The author builds up to the most important idea in the story, which is that the bean lives.

B. The author uses chronological order to show the history of the bean's experiences.

C. The author uses cause and effect to show that the tailor's repair causes the bean to have a black line.

D. The author uses problem and solution to show how the tailor solves the bean's problem of having exploded.

Answer:

The statement that best explains the structure of the passage is:

C. The author uses cause and effect to show that the tailor's repair causes the bean to have a black line.

Explanation:

We must read the full passage before we can choose the best answer. We might be tempted to choose the option that speaks of chronological order, since the author does use it to build the story in the proper sequence.<u> It is only in the end that we get to see the purpose of the passage. When the author says, "The bean thanked him most prettily, but as the tailor used black thread, all beans since then have a black seam," it is revealed that the passage is actually telling us the cause behind the black spot every bean has. The cause is the black thread used by the tailor to mend a bean that had exploded. The effect is the black spot itself. Therefore, the best option is letter C.</u>

Read the excerpt from Anthem. Here, on this mountain, I and my sons and my chosen friends shall build our new land and our fort.
Nadusha1986 [10]

The imagery of "the heart" suggests that the relationship between the society the narrator plans to build and the outside world will be the following: membership for the new society on the mountain will be open to anyone.

In chapter twelve of Anthem, which is the chapter from which the excerpt was extracted, Equality 7-2521 and the Golden One decide that they will launch a new race in the abandoned house they found from the Unmentionable Times. This new race that they vow to create will accept individualism, and they intend to make it the heart of the earth, i.e., <em>the central piece of the planet, </em>the core that will keep life flowing for humanity (much like a heart keeps the body alive by pumping blood). A humanity that believes in individualism, the word "I", and the supremacy of the ego.
